Chapter 286 Why Can’t I Be Surnamed Toyotomi
"Ma...Madadahan."
The man opened his mouth and stammered in response.
"Madahhan, that's the name."
Zhu Ming clicked his lips. If this name was put in front of his royal grandfather, he would probably be suppressed by now.
Madahan, this guy's name is really bold.
"Why are you here?"
Zhu Ming didn't bother with Madahan's name. He looked at him and asked again.
But this time, Madahan did not answer his question. Instead, he raised his head and looked straight at Zhu Ming.
"According to your Han customs, after asking someone's name, you should also introduce yourself."
He looked at Zhu Ming for a while before he spoke slowly.
Even after eating so much, his tone was still a little weak.
"I'm Li, Li Ming."
Zhu Ming didn't expect that this person could still react now. He asked his question back and was stunned for a moment before answering his question.
Yuan Ting was sent away by his Zhu family. Even when the Eighteen Grassland Tribes retreated back to the desert, Zhu Yuanzhang did not let him go. He sent people to fight several times and swept across the northern desert.
There's no guarantee that this person might harbor hatred towards you, so it's better not to reveal your last name easily.
Xu Miaojin was listening to Zhu Minglian changing his last name and she almost couldn't help laughing out loud.
"Looking at your clothes, you must be a rich man."
The man looked Zhu Ming up and down. From his bearing, he knew that he had an extraordinary family background. "Does anyone in your family serve as an official in the court?"
He looked at Zhu Ming and asked again tentatively.
"Fang Xiaoru is my teacher."
Zhu Ming nodded and responded in a vague manner.
Fang Xiaoru was his teacher. Once a teacher, always a father. It is normal for him to say this.
At this time, Fang Xiaoru, who was reading the books of sages in his own residence, couldn't help but sneeze.
"Fang Xiaoru, I've heard of it."
Madahan nodded thoughtfully. Even they, who were far away in Mobei, had heard of Fang Xiaoru's reputation.
It is said that he is the best scholar in the world.
Zhu Ming looked at Madahan and coughed.
I had already answered a few of his questions, and he almost took over the show.
He sorted out his thoughts and spoke again: "Now you can answer my question, right?"
"Why did you come to the capital of the Ming Dynasty?"
Zhu Ming looked at him seriously. Even though the Han people today have some hatred towards the Yuan people, they would not take the initiative to hurt others.
Even in the present-day Ming Dynasty, there are still people who have business dealings with the Yuan people.
The reason why this man fell to this state is obviously because he has no roots in the Ming Dynasty.
It is already somewhat suspicious that such a person would come to Ming Dynasty.
"We were dispersed by the Ming army in Mobei and drifted here."
The man was silent again, then lowered his head and responded.
Zhu Ming also nodded. This reason sounded reasonable.
But this only made his hatred for the Ming Dynasty even deeper.
"So how do you feel about your time in Daming these few days?"
Zhu Ming looked at him and asked again.
He also has a problem now. Zhu Yuanzhang has ordered the three brothers to think about how to deal with the problem of the eighteen tribes on the grassland.
Aren’t these people from the Eighteen Tribes of the Grassland?
Moreover, they had some interactions with the Ming army and had more reference opinions.
"The Confucianism of the Ming Dynasty is extensive and profound, and the way to govern the country is contained therein."
Upon hearing this, the man nodded, not holding back on his praise because of his hatred towards the Ming army.
"If Yuan Ting had understood the truth and learned the Chinese etiquette, he would not have lost the world so quickly."
As he spoke, Madahan shook his head again and sighed helplessly.
After all, the Yuan court still failed to make the world feel like one family.
"So what do you think of the current situation between the Ming Dynasty and the Eighteen Grassland Tribes?"
Zhu Ming smiled and nodded again. The man in front of him had such insight and was quite an important person.
What a pity that he has fallen into such a miserable state.
"This……"
Madahan looked at Zhu Ming, and when he heard his question, he also hesitated.
For a moment, he didn't know how to ask or answer this question.
On the other side, in the ruins, countless fallen corpses were mixed with painful wails.
The blond man held a musket in his hand, looked at the war burning below, and sneered.
"General Ande, after this battle, the only enemy troops left are those remnants hiding in Honnoji Temple."
The princess of the Toyotomi family walked up to Ander with a charming smile on her face and said with a smile.
"I will be able to defeat the remnants of the Honnoji army within ten days."
Ander also smiled confidently.
He has the great Ming Dynasty behind him, and with his talent in leading troops, he is invincible in Japan.
How long can a mere Honnoji Temple stop him?
"As long as Honnoji Temple is destroyed, this country will be yours. You can take all the gold and silver you want from the Ming Dynasty."
Hearing Ander's affirmative answer, the Toyotomi princess chuckled again.
Even on this battlefield, her charm was not diminished at all.
"So, what do you want?"
Ander turned around and looked at the Toyotomi princess.
After spending nearly a year together, he realized that although this person looked weak on the outside, he was actually a very cunning person.
She is so generous with gold and silver, so what does she want?
"I only want the Emperor."
The Toyotomi princess sneered and looked up into the distance.
"You still believe him?"
Seeing that the princess of the Toyotomi family still attached so much importance to the emperor, Ande shook his head helplessly.
With the support of the Ming Dynasty, the Toyotomi family is the king of Japan.
Why do we still need to worship the Emperor as our Lord?
The Toyotomi princess just sneered again.
She remembered that when she came, Zhu Ming once told her that even the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, the Celestial Empire, could be replaced.
Why can't she change the emperor of Japan?
Why can't the emperor have the last name Toyotomi?
"It's up to you. I'm just following your orders to help you fight."
Ander didn't say much. After all, his mission was just to help this princess fight the war.
After the battle of Honnoji, he returned to Ming Dynasty with the gold and silver promised by the princess of the Toyotomi family.
With such meritorious services, he will surely be rewarded by the king of the Ming Dynasty.
"how about you?"
The princess turned around, looked at Ander, and asked in a deep voice.
This Ande is also not a member of the Ming Dynasty. Why is he serving the Ming Dynasty now?
"I'm just a pirate. I'll help whoever pays."
Ander responded simply.
He worked for the Ming Dynasty because it could bring him greater benefits.
Being a general in the Ming Dynasty has many advantages over being a pirate.
"Let's go back and rest. We still have a battle to fight in Honnoji."
The two of them smiled at each other in tacit understanding, then walked out of the ruins and gathered their men together.
"Well, have you figured out how to answer?"
Zhu Ming looked at Madahan calmly and asked again.
He didn't have much time, so he was sitting here with Madahan thinking and gradually became impatient.
